Not lodged yet? Here is the short version. If you lodge your own return, the ATO deadline is 31 October. If a registered tax agent lodges for you, most can lodge after that date, but you need to be on their books before 31 October, especially if it is your first time with an agent or you are switching. Got an earlier return still outstanding? Lodge it too, the sooner the better.

Get in touch before 31 October and we will take it from there.

11/10/2026

You’ve got a family trust and want to distribute income to your child with a disability to help pay for their care. For most minors, the ATO taxes trust income above a tiny threshold at 45%. For a child who qualifies as an excepted person, that penalty rate disappears entirely.

Episode 46 covers the three structures families use to protect a loved one with a disability: the standard family trust, the Special Disability Trust and the testamentary trust. When each one works, what it costs you in flexibility, and why the best plans usually combine them.

Also in this episode:

Why a distribution on paper is not enough, and what a genuine distribution looks like under Section 100A
The Special Disability Trust concessions: the asset exemption, the income exemption and the family gifting concession
The three hidden traps: the five-year gifting clawback, the compensation payout blockade and stamp duty shock
When a Special Disability Trust is worth the compliance load, and when a testamentary trust under a Will fits better

β˜€οΈ Work-related sunscreen? **Now we’re talking.**
πŸš— Driving straight from the station to your second job? **Potential deduction alert.**
πŸͺͺ Heavy vehicle licence renewal? **There could be a claim there too.**
πŸ’° Got an allowance on your payslip? **That DOESN’T automatically mean you get a deduction.** πŸ‘€

You bought a laptop on June 29 and you are counting on the deduction. You salary sacrifice into super and just heard the words Div 293. Your shares reinvest their dividends and the paperwork is everywhere. Sound familiar? Those are real listener questions, and I was the one in the hot seat answering them live.

Episode 44 of The Ledger unpacks those answers properly, question by question, including what the $1,000 "instant deduction" actually is (and is not).

Also in this episode:
β€’ Why lodging in the first week of July can cost you
β€’ Working from home: the fixed rate or actual costs?
β€’ How long a capital loss lasts (longer than you think)
β€’ Gas to electric on an investment property: repair or improvement?
β€’ The 6-year main residence rule and the valuation most people forget
β€’ The June 30 super timing trap

The gym keeps you job fit, so it's deductible... right? Sorry, that one's getting cuffed. πŸš”

Episode 43 of The Ledger is out now: The Police Debrief Part 2, advanced deductions and myth-busting for police officers. We put the lunchroom's favourite claims under interrogation (gym memberships, haircuts, flu shots) and run through the deductions that actually stand up, including union fees at 100%. Forgot to claim those union fees in past years? We cover how amending old returns can put that money back in your pocket.

βœ… The work-related slice of your phone and internet

You're contracting through a company, paying yourself a modest salary, and splitting the rest with your spouse. Sorted? The ATO built two nets to catch exactly that. 🚦

Episode 42 of The Ledger unpacks the consultant's tax trap: the PSI rules that look straight through your structure, and the ATO's traffic light system that scores you green, amber or red even after you've passed the PSB tests.

You spent hundreds on your classroom this year. A class set of novels, prizes for the merit box, a farewell gift for your year sixes, lunch for the kid who forgot theirs again. It all feels claimable. Then the return goes in and the ATO draws a line through most of it. Episode 40 covers the trap catching Australia's most generous profession: spending the ATO calls private, no matter who required it. Gifts for students, a struggling kid's lunch, the flu shot the school insists on, the tracksuit and runners you live in teaching PE. Also in this episode: the kids' iPad trap in work-from-home claims, the crested uniform exception, when a first aid course makes the cut, and the $400 camp tent rule. Listen now. Link in bio.

You open the banking app and see $50,000. It feels like $50,000.
A chunk of it isn't yours. It's the GST you collected and the PAYG you withheld from your staff's wages, sitting in the same account as your working capital. So it buys the equipment, funds the campaign, covers a drawing. Then the BAS arrives and the cash is gone.
Episode 39 covers the fix Ben gives every client: the Vault. A separate high-interest account with no card access, fed by a weekly sweep based on real numbers β€” your net GST from Xero or MYOB, not a guessed percentage of gross sales.
Also in this episode: the second-year PAYG instalment shock, what changes when Payday Super starts on 1 July, and a way to turn the tax bill into frequent flyer points.

She ran her cafΓ© for 20 years. Then she decided to gift the equipment and lease to her son β€” no sale, no money changing hands.

One casual mention in a BAS meeting saved her a $60,000 tax bill.

Here's the trap: under the ATO's market value rule, giving an asset to family is taxed as if you sold it at full market price. No cash in your pocket β€” but a very real tax bill. And in WA, stamp duty can hit the person receiving it too.

Episode 37 of the podcast (plus this week's blog) breaks down the gift trap, and the small business CGT concessions that can bring the tax on a business sale right down β€” sometimes to zero β€” if you plan before you sign.
